The cabin is up a relatively steep dirt road and we strongly recommend our guests have a car with four wheel drive in case of wet or snowy conditions.

This was a very nice, secluded cabin with tons of privacy. We enjoyed the walking trail so much and the hosts amenities were just what we needed to be relaxed and enjoy our stay.

Thanks for leaving the cabin in such perfect condition! We hope you visit again sometime!
Cozy & peaceful dog-friendly cabin, had everything we needed. Secluded but near the main road and easy to find. Awesome outdoor space - multiple decks, grill, fire pits and walking trails surrounded by mountain views.
Lovely cabin, just as described. Close to Lost River State Park. Enjoyed our time there and would stay again. We wanted a quiet getaway and this was a great place for that.
It was just as described and a wonderful place to get away with family. My dad, brother and I enjoyed the cabin immensely. My brother and I are thinking about bringing our own families back here sometime.
Really neat place to stay. The host was quick to respond and very friendly. The cabin has lots of amenities and we had a great time. Its in a dark sky area and you can see a million stars from the deck. We had a really great time.
This cabin was perfect. If you don’t want to go anywhere and not get bored this cabin is perfect! So much to do! We had a great time there with our dog. We got engaged here and will definitely return! Highly recommend!

We're so glad you enjoyed your time at the cabin, and look forward to hosting you again some day!
My boys and I loved every second in this cabin, we or I, will be coming back! There was practically everything we needed there! Absolutely a perfect stay! Didn’t want to leave! Just watch, there’s a steep hill getting to it 🙂.
We had a great time at the cabin! Arli was very easy to communicate with, and provided lots of information before we even got to the cabin. The kitchen is wonderful and very well stocked. They also had helpful sheets with information for and around the cabin, and we ended up going to a great spot nearby to hangout, They were also very dog friendly, which we really appreciated. We hope to stay there again!
The property is beautiful, the cabin was cozy and clean and had everything you needed to hide away for a couple of days. We brought our two dogs and their favorite part was the nature trail. My husband and I loved sitting by the wood burning stove and listening to records while looking at the view. Thank you, Arli for letting us spend our Christmas vacation here.

Our time here was wonderful. The cabin exceptionally clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed e vynil player and the clawfoot tub. Beautiful view from the balcony as well.
The host was even considerate enough to leave us fresh cinnamon rolls from a near by bakery.
We'll definitely be coming back to this lovely cabin!

Loved the House of Jam! Everything was more beautiful in person. Great views from the decks. There were so many neat details about the house and property that made it unforgettable. We were even surprised with delicious cinnamon rolls from a local baker. We hope to visit again!
